This is my favorite specialty store in the Market--and not just because I am Italian! Their selection is almost overwhelming. The have all sorts of Italian imports--olive oils, canned items, pastas, even cookies. They also have a refrigerated case full of take-home goodies like lasagna, ravioli, gelato and stocks. The cheese counter is a sight to behold and has more selections than anywhere else I've seen. The also have salami, bacon, sausages, olives and all the makings of a perfect antipasto platter. The fresh ricotta is heavenly. The sales staff is really friendly and knowledgeable and you will probably need them. Upstairs they keep all of their wine, and the selection is decent for a shop of their size. Again, the staff is fantastic and will steer you toward the right bottle. You really can't go wrong with anything from this store. Also, their website has tons of recipes that will help you infuse some creativity into your meals. Shops like this make cooking and entertaining fun!

I recently moved to Seattle and was seriously considering taking a ferry to the grand Central Market store in Poulsbo. Then not a couple days later discovered the Shoreline location and my life hasn't been the same since. I normally judge grocery stores by their produce section and this store WINS.
Just the fact that they have four different colors of cauliflower on display makes me want to buy cauliflower. I don't even like cauliflower! I've been sampling random varieties of fresh fruit at will lately. All quality, never plastic. Major selection, and reasonable prices. I'm used to shopping at Winco. But this store has a great depth of specialty items in stock. Sometimes more expensive. I am always amazed when I come in with a challenging list of hard to find items and end up finding exactly what I need. The variety of fungus this place carries year round is better than anywhere else. I've seen fresh lobster mushrooms there, maitake (hen of the woods), enoki, king oyster, jarred truffles, variety samplers, dried varieties, alongside monster portabellos, crimini and buttons, chanterelles, shiitake, etc.
Pros: produce section, fungus, specialty items, prices, parking
Cons: strip mall context

When we are going to buy a lot of wine or are looking for something special, Esquin is a great place to go. Their staff is very informed and can even help you with food pairings. I've gone in with a menu and they've walked me through the best wines for my courses. When I wanted more education on port, a salesperson gave me a great deal of info about my options and I never felt like he was trying to upsell me with the most expensive bottle. Also, they are always having great deals and wine tasting events which you can find out about in their newsletter so I recommend checking it out.

Husky Deli is a local cornerstone. West Seattle families know and love the place where they can take their kids to have just like their parents did.
Their ice cream is made on site as well as their Waffle Cones. With a wonderful variety from Licorice to the classic Chocolate, one is sure to become a fan of fine quality ice cream.
The Deli provides an array of sandwiches, salads and other foods. They also cater for various events.
They also provide a unique grocery selection of candies, chocolates, and fine foods such as olive oils, olives, spices, etc.
There really isn't anything else like it. If you're new to West Seattle, you must check it out!

We go there to buy wine and get educated. The selection is terrific, particularly of Washington wines, and the service is excellent. They really know their stuff and are happy to talk you through the difficult decisions of what to buy for what occasions, meals, etc.

There doesn't seem to be any recent reviews so I thought I'd throw my hat in.
This is a great place, the staff is super friendly and helpful. They specialize in affordable wine that you can drink everyday, not the stuffy old man, don't touch that bottle for 50yrs kinda wine.
They have free wine tastings every Thursday and always bring something new and tasty. I recommend you check them out and ask for a favorite pick.
Google the name for their website.
Pros: Service, staff picks, website, free tastings
Cons: Parking

I highly reccomend the skillfull pallette of the staff here. They have never failed to help me pick out the perfect wine for my dinner parties. They have limited runs of limited wines...you won't find any cheap Australians here. If you are looking for that special item to set of your dinner, then this is the place to go. Don't miss thier wonderful tastings.
